Default Re: Recommended tyres for my SV?

I used the bt 021 on both my SV with no real problems but then the technology of them is getting on a bit now.

I'm a fan of conti sport attack on my bike but as its not an sv, cant comment.

When it comes to tyres, everyone has their own opinion.
Everyone rides differently and wants different things from their tyres.

Best advice is to just pick a decent branded tyre and give it a try.

Rang up my local garage and they said that they recommend the Bridgestone BT021 and they are better than the conti road attacks and Avon storm 2's. They were also cheaper than these two as bridgestone havent increased there prices yet so im getting a set fitted tomorrow. Let you know how it goes!
